From Utah to Wyoming

We missed the church of the Mormons in Salt Lake City because of to much traffic on this Monday morning. We decided to take I-189 and going towards Yellowstone NP and to see the Grand Tetons.

On the way to Jackson WY we have seen a lot of wildlife beside the road


Sheep, sheep, sheep... as far you can see


And this little cute fellow too - yes, it's a prairie dog :)


A sheep herder on his horse and a dog was rounding up his hundreds of sheep


Pretty pastel landscape
(btw, all the photos are click able to see it bigger)


Beautiful colors and sand banks at the Spanish River, WY


We have seen hundreds of white pelicans (!) sitting on the sand banks of the Green River


The sign to the history of the Spanish River or Rio Verde or Green River


And then we got this spectacular view to the snow covered Rocky's


Big cow ranches on our way - but I still have not seen a real cowboy :)


Coming closer to Jackson....but still many miles away


Still miles to go... America is BIG!!! :)


And here they are: The majestic Grand Tetons mountains in the Grand Tetons NP


Today Tuesday we were touring around in the NP, shooting pictures and looking out for wildlife like: Bears, Elks, Mountain Lions...the only one wild animal we have seen was ONE Buffalo - and he was VERY impressive and VERY big :)
and I forgot to click my camera...LOL... :)



Hi my friends,

thank you so much for all the nice compliments to my last post! I'm happy that you liked that photo so much :)

Today we were touring around in the Grand Tetons NP and tomorrow we will visit Yellowstone and the Geysers of course - if the weather Gods are friendly with us. Today we had a short rain and for tomorrow they're talking about rain again.... well, we will see. Otherwise we will heading towards Cody and try to visit the Buffalo Bill Museum :)
I'm still looking for a REAL Cowboy...LOL... if you know one, please contact me :)

Stay tuned... see ya'...
Susanne and David
